Hello,

When I bought these memory items, I thought they were identical. I didn't notice one pair ended BXL, the other BRL. It appears they have the same clock speed and dual channel.

Is it ok to use them together on a GIGABYTE GA-Z68X-UD4-B3 Intel Z68 Motherboard for a total of 16GB?

Thank you in advance for any help here.

They will work together all right. They have the same specs. Just different heat spreader design.[/quotemsg]

Yes, this seems to be true as I have them installed now and have experienced no discernable problems. I want to thank you for taking the time to respond to my query. I have never built a computer before and so there are many questions and, of course, I have made some mistakes.
